About the book: 2020 / What do we know about the work of a pathologist and the inner life of such a dark place as a morgue? This book was written by a man who had the opportunity to go from an ordinary employee to the director of the main morgue in the UK, conduct several thousand autopsies, take part in the investigation of the sensational “Scotwell Strangler” case and find himself in the abyss of a real corruption scandal.
